What is OBE?

• In a nutshell, OBE implies the best way to learn is to first determine what needs to be achieved.

• Once the desired results or ‘exit outcomes’ have been determined, the strategies, processes, techniques and means are put in place to achieve the predetermined goals.

• In essence, it is a working-backwards with students as the center of the learning–teaching milieu.

are the sets of competencies (related knowledge, skills, and attitudes) that all learners are expected to demonstrate.

For instance, HEIs could describe the attributes of their ideal graduates which they expect to see five years after graduation.

Minimum Performance Indicators

Curriculum

• Course codes• knowledge areas• Titles• units

Program Study

• Program study– GE, electives, PE, NSTP, Professional courses– Offerings and total units per sem per year level

per course

Program Study

Means of Curriculum Delivery• Lecture and classroom discussion• Programming demonstrations• Guided-hands-on programming sessions• Guided design and development of project specifications• Independent programming assignments such as machine

problems • Case analysis and case studies• Capstone projects for BSIS & BSIT, which involves

requirements gathering, design, and implementation• Thesis for BSCS• Mentorship or monitored internships

Course [Learning] Outcomes

• refer to the knowledge, values, and skills all learners are expected to demonstrate at the end of a course.

• Learning outcomes may result from a specific lesson, although it is sometimes used interchangeably with course outcomes.

• are seen as building blocks toward course outcomes, which in turn, support the program outcomes.
